Pretty Mandy
Mandy is looking like one beautiful bitch in the sweater I made her on a round knitting loom 
Lustra Feather and Fan Scarf
For this scarf I used Berroco Lustra yarn which is 50% Peruvian Wool and 50% Tencel Lyocell. It’s a wonderful yarn to work with and the feather and fan stitch works great with it!
Countryside Ruffle Scarf
For this scarf I used Sundance Countryside yarn which is Acrylic/Mohair/Wool and used a simple ruffle pattern. It’s a modified version of the LoDo scarf pattern on Ravelry.
2011 in review
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
A New York City subway train holds 1,200 people. This blog was viewed about 5,500 times in 2011. If it were a NYC subway train, it would take about 5 trips to carry that many people.
Pink Ruffle Baby Blanket
Delivered this commissioned pink ruffle baby blanket yesterday. I made up the pattern and used Caron Simply Soft yarn.
First batch for BellaDonnas
I finally got around to taking 3 scarves, a wrap and a shawl to BellaDonnas to sell. Hoping they get sold!
LoDo Scarf
I found this great pattern from the yarn shop in Summerville, SC – The Village Knittery (which is a great shop by the way). The person working there found this scarf pattern on Ravelry and printed it out for me. I used two skeins of Berroco Ultra Alpaca and modified the pattern slightly so it wouldn’t be as wide. I will definitely use this pattern again!
Cinnamon ripple scarf
This scarf is really wider than I had planned but I went with it anyway. It is super soft yet really thick. I used two strands of yarn: Regia sock wool and Nashua kid mohair in cinnamon. It turned out really nice
